Sure, in general, but this is why I wrote "to me" as in I don't care about he price difference. (Which, btw, in Stockholm is not very significant.) My account was simply meant as an anecdote to support the parent comment, tha

Anecdata to support your point: in Stockholm the taxi companies have caught up in terms of convenience vis-à-vis apps, registering payment methods etc., to the point where I just use them rather than Uber. To me, Uber never competed on pric

The TC39 process isn't perfect, but it's definitely much better than what it used to be. Particularly, the effort to bring discussions into light and provide the ability to engage in the development of the various proposals[1] h

I agree, but what can we do? Snap Inc. isn't exactly some teenager trying to make it out of their parent's garage. Patents obviously don't work, or at least not in their current form – troll litigation should suffice as proof

I was about to write the same thing. Here in Sweden you often see adverts for telcos where they offer free data for Facebook usage and stuff like that. We're not a developing country and you'll get a fair bit of data at a reasonab

Having tried a number of sleep tracking solutions to get this whole "wake up when your body is most ready for it" thing I'm not sure it works for me. To me, it seems the only way for me to wake up and actually get up is: 1.

Clearly mileage varies. I've been more or less fully remote for a top tier financial institution about the last two years. (I show up every few months to meet up for some face time, sure we make time for some meetings and the likes but

Yeah I didn't read it that way either, just a matter of factly "here are the differences" – that section probably could be expanded and clarified.

The readme says this: > Pkg hacked fs.* API's dynamically in order to access in-package files, whereas Node.js Compiler leaves them alone and instead works on a deeper level via libsquash. Pkg uses JSON to store in-package files whi

Yeah it's the same here in Sweden but its much less hassle audit wise to just show a separate unit with the company name on the door than a single room. Or at least, that's what my accountant told me, and the grapevine seemed to a

I have no idea. It was built quite recently, in 2005 I think, and on the lease it just says "space available to let" or something like that. I've lived here since 2006 or so, but only recently started using the apartment like

I kill two birds with one stone: my apartment is actually two in disguise. I have two front doors, one leading to a third of the apartment (it's a rather large 4-bed) which is quite literally closed off from the rest by simply locking

I'm definitely buying this. I've got a yearly pass to Kennedy Space Center, but I don't even live in the US. Still, I've been there more than four times just this year, and even watched a rocket launch from the LC-39 gan

I disagree with most of the points made, I think Apple has done more to make software a viable product than any other company. The problem however is that they paint everything in very broad strokes. Everyone pays the 30% Apple tax, regardl

I'm happy to see there's an option to use this with an AST as input, more tools like this should follow suit. Hopefully it can then push us to a place where there's a standard JS AST such that we don't reinvent that whee

As a Swede, I can echo this. I'm so used to the US layout by now that I have to do a double take whenever I switch to the SE layout, or type on someone else's keyboard. I used to get laptops and keyboards with the US layout on the

If that extra $500 comes with solid support, down to calling a rep and having a replacement box show up the same or next day, then it's a no-brained for any kind of professional. If I lose a couple of days to having to figure stuff out

Yes, this is what I meant by super cover. Essentially you just rent without any additional coverage and Amex will cover anything not covered by the rental agency's insurance. This saves a good $20/day at least, meaning if you rent
